Honda, FM They dress up for a special occasion in 2026: two flagship motorcycles from the golden wing brand
Sometimes, the most subtle changes are the ones that best capture a motorcycle's evolution
The renewal of models for the upcoming season has already begun. Different brands are putting their best foot forward to attract attention to their new versions.
Honda knows this and, for 2026, has decided to strengthen the personality of two of its most iconic models. We are referring to the Forza 750 and the X-ADV.
Both feature a new color scheme that doesn't alter a single aspect of the solid technical foundation that supports them. However, they add a distinctive touch with a very clear intention: to keep setting trends through refinement.
The Honda Forza 750 maxiscooter, elegant and functional, expands its color range with a new Pearl Glare White option. It highlights its lines with a decidedly urban sobriety.
Meanwhile, the Honda X-ADV, a symbiosis between scooter and trail motorcycle that has managed to carve out its own path, incorporates a historical nod. It does so in the form of a special "Tricolor" edition.
It adds a finish in Matte Pearl Glare White with red and blue graphics. This way, it stands as an explicit tribute to the Transalp and Africa Twin that built Honda's prestige off-road.
DCT as a distinctive element
Both keep their 45.4 cu in. (745 cc) parallel-twin engine intact, accompanied by the effective DCT dual-clutch transmission. The chassis is inherited from the "big bike" universe.
This is proven by its 1.6 in. (41 mm) inverted fork or the aluminum swingarm with Pro-Link system. Also, the front brakes with radial calipers.
What does continue, however, is the commitment to sustainability in their exterior plastics. Durabio remains present in the fibers of the Honda X-ADV. It is a biopolymer derived from corn that debuted on the Africa Twin's display.
It stands as part of the brand's commitment to a future without polluting materials or painting processes with harmful emissions.
New accessories 2026
Along with the new color schemes, both motorcycles can be customized with a revised range of accessories for 2026. Highlights include a new passenger backrest and an Akrapovič slip-on muffler. This will add acoustic and aesthetic nuances without compromising legality.
There are no mechanical updates, but with a precise reading of the moment, Honda keeps refining its masterpieces.
Honda achieves this with the intelligence of those who know that details also build legends. Both Hondas will be available in the fall.
